This video was posted by a Dagestani popular blogger Omar Alibutaev @omar_alibutayev in his Instagram. He says it’s “disgrace for the state” when it can’t provide hospitals and doctors with protective equipment and medicines:

“The state forgives debts of billions of dollars to number of countries, sends planes [with humanitarian help] everywhere – while it cannot help its own doctors and hospitals. They don’t have robes, masks, medical accessories. It looks like a mockery, it’s so shameful.”

Alibutaev has launched a campaign to gather funds and provide doctors in Dagestan with protective equipment in the midst of the pandemic.

Earlier, the local organization Patient Monitor was bringing attention to the problems physicians face in Dagestani hospitals, including critical lack of special protection equipment.
